Something looks odd in the last calibration, as you got nowhere near a 90deg result for RA vs DEC??????
( This also shows up as the plotted DEC is not a straight line )
I would have expected better for a mount of this class, but then again there is still a high drift rate in RA ( around 4.5 arcsec per min?? ) that may be affecting that. The originbal unit tested by the chap in the US several years ago also had rather large RA drift, so maybe thats normal ??????
I think i need to butcher the file ( a little ) to manually recalc the positions based on the best fit camera angle, to see what it looks like then.
